The field star halo is comprised of those field stars that are like the stars found in the halo globular clusters. We discuss the halo properties — in particular whether Vrot is a function of z. An analysis of recent surveys for blue horizontal branch stars is described; the halo that is defined by these stars is composite and contains both a spherical and flat component.
